Abstract
|
|
|
|
Adenocarcinoma occurs very rarely in the paranasal sinuses; moreover, adenocarcinoma di-agnosed in the external nose is rarely reported. A 58-year-old male patient visited our hospitalwith an enlarged right nasal mass. On image studies, a 1.5 cm sized mass was found on theright nasolabial fold, which was surgically removed via sublabial approach. Intraoperative fro-zen section examination showed inflammatory tissue without tumor cells. However, adeno-carcinoma showing infiltration between the skeletal muscle layers was diagnosed on the finalhistopathologic examination after surgery. In the immunohistochemical staining test, CK7positive, CK20 negative, and GCDFP-15 positive were confirmed, so metastasis of adenocar-cinoma was considered first rather than primary cancer of the nasolabial fold. There was norecurrence and no tumor development in other sites after postoperative chemoradiation thera-py of 32 months.
